Re: Amir's Portfolio environments
I've been experimenting a bit with the mesh decal technique in cryengine. I have to say that cryengine was built to make use of premodeled decals. It handles transparency really well and there isn't a single sign of Z fighting when overlapping two polygons together. Since we don't have access to an advanced material/shader… -
Re: warehaus - UDK
naw, you're right. (just for clarification, when I said decal I meant a decal plane that hovers over a surface, never ruled out a blend shader) i've been leaning that way for a few days now. i'd wanted to give some vertex painting stuff a shot, but I can't think of how I'd get the nice directional details you see in the… -
Re: Beveled Assets and Tiling Textures. Techniques?
sadly UE4 is not stable using deferred decals and so far I do not think there will be improvements coming anytime soon. I did manage to sucesfully use normal/roughness/metal decals which is great but its just a step-up to deferred decals method which could be a game changer if combined with the weighted normals workflow. -
Re: Your opinion on Game piracy...
Delays can occur for a number of different reasons. I don't think there was ever a publisher that said "Hey, I feel like screwing over Europe today. Let's delay x game for a few days!" I don't think a couple of days delay is that bad, if you look at some other companies it's quite excellent actually. -
Re: What Are You Working On? 2015!!!
Worked more on how to mask my decals properly. I figured out I could use a local tri planar solution for projecting the underlaying texture to the surfaces around the decal details. So if I have a bevel decal , and a screw on it for example, the bevel's texture alignment with match the underlaying object's material if I… -
Re: Pre-Dom War V - Caution
Word. If someone worthwhile started hosting big game-art challenges I'd think GA would be a bit fucked... especially if that "other" kept their promises and didn't delay everything. Hell. At this point Fred even delays the delays... Also. I don't dig the withholding of information he does. Nah. That shit ain't for me… -
Re: My car thread - low to mid poly cars
Wow thank you very much Mike, really appreciate your insight plus YT info which I'll definitely look into : ) I'm revisiting the Kingtiger tank project linked in my sig, after many a year decaying through obvious inattention....nay to be blunt unadulterated laziness hence the query for an alternate modeling method that may… -
Re: [UE4] Star Citizen - The Starfarer Airlock area (Finished)
Awesome work! Did you model the corridor in one piece and then cut it up or did you plan a modular setup right from start? Which UE4 decal material are you using - translucent/translucent or dbuffer decals? I´m learning how to set up my mesh decals and started to use a translucent/translucent material, because I can have… -
Re: Particle Question
I think the emitter delay will delay it per emitter, not per emitted particle, right? Will have to take a look at it, as said its been a while since i worked on those particle systems. basicly i guess i have to delay several emitters with a low number of particles instead of one emitter with a large number of particles, a… -
Re: KTM Dirt Bike
Pedro Amorim - Fixed, images should be alright now :) Artist_in_a_box - Thanks. all the decal stickers were created in photoshop and applied/edited in Substance Painter. In some instances its much easier to paint/apply decal directly on to mesh since the uv's might be stretched on some parts or you might have a uv seam…
